The Binding String

S E V E N T Y - N I N E

Hey people's.
Stopping your here for an opinion. As you all know two major plots left for now, one Ishita past and other the reason behind Raman and Ishita seperation. So I want to know which segment should come before? Ishita past or the reason of Ishita and Raman seperation???

Comment down your suggestions below according to the previous chronology of this story. Guys I have been busy nowadays and my mind is cluttered with lots of things, honestly I have started loosing my creative side which I don't want. That's why i often ask for advices from my readers.

Just a last request:- Don't give up on me.

Thank you.
Love
      Aarohi ❤️

"Ishita."

"Ishita."

"Ishita."

"What Raman?"

"Where are you?"

"In the washing area."

Raman walked towards the backyard along his laptop and found his wife busy drying his clothes. He kept his laptop on the table and started handing her clothes one by one. It was a hot afternoon, the hot air can be felt on the skin. Raman rested his hands upon his torso looking at Ishita who was pinning cloth pins one by one. The backyard was covered with high iron grills and a shade from top, what is the need of pinning down the clothes, he wondered.

"Yes. What happened?" Ishita arched her eyebrow arranging buckets on their usual place before wiping her hands.

"Why are you doing all these things?"

"The help is busy in doing other stuff and moreover I want to inspect your clothes by myself. Last time when Sudha washed your shirts, the stains weren't removed." Raman hummed in the response tailing behind his wife carrying his laptop. "I have typed your application, all you need to email it and submit one hardcopy at the university." Ishita wore her reading glasses and skimmed the application at the one go, Raman had typed her application for a year long paid leaves. When she proposed about leaving her job, Raman started researching and came to the conclusion that she is entitled to take a Child Care Leave which can be taken for two years until her child turns eighteen. Ishita never availed her leaves after Roohi birth and hence Raman suggested her to avail her leaves for an year and if a year later she felt to stay home for Roohi then she can easily extend those. Raman knows what value her job holds for her, and he would never allow her to sacrifice her job and passion.

"Thank you." Ishita wounded her arm around Raman's forearm and rested her head on his shoulder making him smile. He kept his laptop aside and planted a kiss on her hand, "I have seen you working hard for this job day and night, I will not let you waste it."

"I know, honestly I wasn't willing to leave this job. Is that I don't wish to neglect Roo."

"You won't darling. By the way you need to go to university to submit the department keys and also your cabin keys to the department head."

"Hmm...since you're at home then I can go alone." Ishita suggested tapping her fingers on the table top.

"There is no need to go alone."

"Raman you returned at four in the morning only, you must sleep for a few hours."

"I woke up half an hour back only." Raman protested leaving his wife pouted. His company is going to do a collaboration with a Canadian Company and yesterday they had their first meeting which was scheduled according to Canadian time and by the time he returned home it was four in the morning. She urged him to stay at home which thankfully he obliged. "Okay fine, we shall leave together around four. First we will submit the documents and later go to Jeeju Place." Raman hummed in response, today they were invited to Vandita and Bala to celebrate their fifteenth wedding anniversary. Ishita was having mixed emotions when Bala called and invited them for dinner. In these years her relationship with Vandita only worsened, she don't remember when she visited her home it's always Bala who came at her place to meet her but it was never other way around beside that man will also be there and she wasn't ready to face him certainly. If her sister approached her then would reject her but Ishita has no heart to let down her jeeju and hence they decided to mark their presence at her sister's place.
